I don't mind your two cents - I want your two cents, even your two bits. I want information overload. The more the merrier. i agree about the Monterey Peninsula. I drove it 5 years ago on a trip from Phoenix to San Francisco. I had 6 days to drive it- hit the Grand Canyon, Monterey, San Luis Obisbo, Hearst Castle and San Francisco. Was not into LH's then or I would have needed 10 days to do the same trip. This time I'm going to concentrate on LH's (with a possible second trip to Hearst Castle- too big to do in one day). I might slip in some other non LH sites if i have time. Thanks again. Keep the info flowing. Dennis
